1840 The managed disk has bad blocks.
Explanation
These errors are virtual medium errors, which are created when you copy a volume where the source
has medium errors. During data moves or duplication, such as during a FlashCopy process, an attempt
is made to move medium errors; to achieve this, virtual medium errors called bad blocks
are
created. After a bad block is created, no attempt is made to read the underlying data, as there is
no guarantee that the old data still exists after the bad block
is created. Therefore, it is
possible to have bad blocks
, and thus medium errors, reported on a target volume without any
medium errors on the underlying storage. The bad block
records are removed when the data is
overwritten by a host.
Note: On an external controller, this error can result only from a copied medium error.
User response
- The support center directs the user to restore the data on the affected volumes.
- When the volume data is restored, or the user chooses not to restore the data, mark the error as
fixed
. - Run the fix procedure from the event log menu in the GUI.
